Folks,

As I continue to add items for my kit that are outside the FFR parts list as I prep for delivery of my kit in May, I end off with more questions than known answers. I have looked at the various threads and the manual and am not sure what is the correct fitting size. Borgeson sells a GM PS pump to Ford Mustang Rack :

and a

The PS pump from BPE for the LS3 comes with AN6 and AN10 fittings.

Any thoughts on the right combination or ORB and AN fittings would be appreciated.

Thanks

Bill

My roadster is -6AN at the rack and used the hoses that were with the kit. However, I'm retrofitting a 1942 pick-up truck and using the same rack (Mustang) and purchased the stuff to make my own DIY lines with reusable hose end fittings. I like the DIY method better.

not sure if you can use this kit, but I have a set of hoses from Breeze that I ended up not using

I am trying to get the information from FFR right now to ensure the fittings on the Mustang PS rack they provide with the PS option. With that knowledge I can work backwards on hose an fittings since I know what the BPE PS pump has for fittings.

I will let you know.

Thanks

Bill
